Many thanks for that. Thats put me off ordering with the DSG box and saved me 2K.

Don’t get me wrong there’s times were it works but most of the time I feel the van is in the wrong gear

Iv'e never been a fan of auto boxes with less than a 3.0l engine I think that they work great with engines with a fair bit of torque, but with smaller engines and with less torque I guess that they are up and down the box trying to find the right gear...... Many thanks for your insight, and I think I will stick with a manual.

Done close to a 1k miles over the lat two weekends - fishing and a trip to Cornwall ... DSG box is OK ... but its lease so I will have to live with it :l

Planning on soundproofing \ carpeting and cutting the bulkhead this weekend

So back from the stealers yesterday with a set of cross bars and the bumper fixed ... incorrectly fitted out of the factory but not a warranty cover as I had signed it off the back of the lorry without spotting it cba arguing about 90 quid - got a free clean!

The majority of my carpet and soundproofing arrived yesterday so that's the weekend job - pics to follow in the sun!

So I stripped the van, got the panels and ply out and did the 2mm sound mats and 12mm insulation after it - hot sweaty work this weekend!

Jordi you are making me feel lazy
Good stuff mate
What’s the plan
You deleting bulkhead

Re: the DSG

Fit the paddle shift steering wheel, makes the DSG almost tolerable.

So spent another sweaty weekend working on the van - GTE seat covers and carpeting the rear! TBH if you can get the rear done for £650 get it done ... I reckon I spent £300 on materials and the amount of back and knee ache, fiddling and its not 100% perfect - good learning curve though!

Details ... got a few more mods to run ... but carbon L section finishes off the carpet edge!
